Nuclear Magnetic Resonance for Cultural Heritage
2007
Abstract Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) portable devices are now being used for nondestructive in situ analysis of water content, pore space structure and protective treatment performance in porous media in the field of cultural heritage. It is a standard procedure to invert T 1 and T 2 relaxation data of fully water-saturated samples to get “pore size” distributions, but the use of T 2 requires great caution. It is well known that dephasing effects due to water molecule diffusion in a magnetic field gradient can affect transverse relaxation data, even if the smallest experimentally available half echo time τ is used in Carr–Purcell–Meiboom–Gill experiments. When a portable single-sided N…
